I have to be honest with you. I am such an old-school stubborn fart that when I want to do anything other then just add text & links in word-press I do it in html. Probably takes more time, but I just can't help myself.

I spent probably 2 weeks on and off messing with my theme, and I still had issues, which anna pointed out when she added a comment to my blog and I thought, how the fuck could she do that. So prepare for some time playing with a theme if you plan to make one from scratch or alter it.

As far as quick links for help, this one I personally found valuable: http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags

Good luck Walrus.

Thanks, I have no doubt that I'll try to find a template that is somewhere near what I'm looking for and then tear it a part and basicly start all over again.

As far as old skool html, that's how everything gets added currently in my blog. I just want to do some shit that I have spent 3 weeks on / off trying to get working with bBlog that I know WP has a plugin for. There comes a point, no matter how accustomed you've grown to a tool where it just won't do the job anymore and I think that's the point I've reached. So I'm gonna lock me and my good buddy Jack in a room tomorrow and not come out till shits the way I want it or I need more Jack.
